My server just crashed because a CPU-intensive build threatened to overheat the processor so the system shut down. When I rebooted and tried to start postgres the attempt failed because `data directory "/usr/local/pgsql/data" has group or world access'. As far as I can recall, it's always been 755 like the other directories in /usr/local/pgsql.
When I changed the perms to 700 I was able to start postgres. I want to check that these are the proper permissions (I can run psql from the command line and access Ledger-123 so I assume they're OK.) How the permissions on the directory changed when the system shut down will probably always remain a mystery.
